You've got to realize, Share, is that these two pundits are
professionals who write for a living every day - they are not posing as
uninformed seekers or aspirants just passing the time of day reading
their email. This posting to FFL is serious business! This is what the
FFL pundits do, they post to internet discussion groups in order to
prove their online subculture status. They've been doing this for at
least twenty years - one probably out of a home office near the Jersey
shore and the other posting from a cafe in downtown Montmartre. LoL!
You, on the other hand, are simply an amateur posing as a serious poster
- a poseur and a newbie from a small mid-western town. Hey, how long
does someone have to post here in order to avoid being calling a troll?
Is there a community college course where I can take a course in
netiquette and posting to news groups?
As a poseur or poser you can only copy and paste from other sources. You
probably don't even have a typewriter. A poser is someone who cannot
attain acceptability in the group because they don't share or understand
the values of uptown writing and the cafe writing subculture.
SO, WHAT WOULD ANYONE HAVE TO SAY ABOUT FAIRFIELD OR TM, IF ALL THEY DO
IS LIVE IN FAIRFIELD AND PRACTICE TM-SIDDHI IN THE FAIRFIELD TM DOME
EVERYDAY?
Go figure.

Says Barry, continuing his poseur demonstration.

Actually, no, no more than anyone else expressing their opinion.
Barry's doing the same thing in this post. He really thinks readers
here are saps, doesn't he?

Barry's getting very, VERY confused as to which posts of his I
commented on, and why. HINT: It wasn't any of the posts he
refers to above.
Remember now which ones they were, Barry?
Barry edits his own memories such that he doesn't
remember that virtually everything he criticizes others
for doing is stuff that he himself does routinely.

Yup, that's what Barry's hoping when he does what he
attributes to me above. He doesn't just accuse his critics
of doing things he /has done/, he accuses them of doing
/what he's doing as he makes his accusations./ It's really
quite remarkable. When he goes on one of these rants,
he is actually describing himself and just changing the
names and pronouns. /And he doesn't realize it/.
That's how little self-knowledge he has.
The three items he lists above are not only the formula
he uses, they're the formula /he's using to tell you what/
/my purported formula is./
